We did that last night to VIctoria.HAve you booked meds etc??? I am using an agent and as our sponsorship fell into the 30 days rule which was extended for an additional 30 da, we had to email the TRN number direct to them. I got an email confirming they had sent the relevant forms to DIAC on Monday so i didnt need to chase them. Our aim was to get to Oz July 2013 when my son has finished his GCSEs. He has already started doing modular exams where he is getting As so it would be a shame for him not to complete the final exams. We are waiting for the CO to request medicals hoping it will bide us a bit of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when they request meds and Police checks- youve 28 days in wihich to upoad them..maybe then upload them in say 25 days..that'd buy you time Also then 175 would suit - its slower to come through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

path2aus Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 We got our CO in 5 days (3 working days to be precise as our application was sumitted on a friday). It does seem like the CO's are assigned pretty fast these days for the 176 visa. We were hoping for a breather of about 20 days after we filed the online application. We stared the process in September 2011 (Submission of ACS) and by December 5th we had our CO. We hardly had breathing space in the process. Now with the PCC's taking a long time we are able to relax a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
